mirror

"Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?" In the Disney children's classic, the magic mirror always told the wicked queen that she was the fairest in the land. 



Until Snow White asked.  Then the magic mirror became a reflection of truth.

What if we had a magic mirror like that? It might reveal things about us we'd rather not see, and face up to. Perhaps we would view things as they really are, not as we'd rather they be.

I've a long list of questions to ask in heaven. I suspect many others do too. One day the questions will be answered. We will understand. Meantime, while on this earth, we can each be a mirror and "magically" supernaturally reflect the love of God.

Paul says, in 2 Corinthians 3:18: 
And all of us, as with unveiled face, continued to behold as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another;  from the Lord the Spirit.
